Cheesy Bacon Fries with Ranch Dip

A cousin to the loaded baked potato, Cheesy Bacon Fries often accompany our casual dinners of sandwiches or finger foods. But what makes these fries so delicious is not the bacon or cheese {though they both help immensely}. It is the ranch dip. Just a bit of this dip on fries changes them from good to insanely delicious.
